Denis Goldberg Freedom fighter and Humanist

Community H.E.A.R.T. & Liliesleaf present a tribute in honour of Denis Goldberg, written by South African, British, German, Dutch and Swedish anti apartheid activists, friends and comrades who have known him during his remarkable life.

Denis Goldberg was one of those sentenced in 1964 to life imprisonment with Nelson Mandela, Walter Sisulu, Ahmed Kathrada and others.

The book charts his life through the eyes of others, from his early activism to his time in prison and the continued struggle to end apartheid and to bring about a free, just and fair South Africa after his release. This is a moving tribute to a man whose life has been dedicated to fight for his fellow human beings in South Africa and indeed across the world.

Contributors include: Ahmed Kathrada sentenced to life with Denis, Jeremy Cronin who was in prison with Denis, Hillary Hamburger who was Denis’s link to the outside world while in prison. Brian Filling the Chair of the Anti Apartheid Movement in Scotland and later ACTSA Scotland and others.
